Le Marais

by GUYON - last update: Jun 16, 2003

Saint Gervais Saint Protais

Saint Gervais Saint Protais
The Rue des Barres (metro : Saint Paul) is a piece of green in the middle of the City.

Here, you can enjoy the quiet sit at a table close to the church or go to the convent shop (not visible, on the right of the photograph) to buy a card, a candle or any things made by the nuns.
A Middle Age house

An old half-timbered house

In front of St Paul Church, there is this old house.

Hôtel de Sens

Initially, Paris reported to the archbishop of Sens who had a mansion in Paris : the Hotel de Sens.

It is an example of the Renaissance style.

Restaurant "Chez Julien"

Restaurant Chez Julien

A greatful restaurant on 2 floors. The 2nd was previouly a flat now organized as a restaurant.

Location : Rue Du Pont Louis-Philippe.

Do not make a confusion with "Chez Julien" at Strasbourg St Denis which was created by one of my wife's cousins and which was the last "Bouillon" of Paris.

Marché Saint Paul

An antique market located rue Saint Paul.

There are several courts, with small shops. Not terrific but sympathetic.
Marché St Paul
Rue St Paul

A beautiful shopwindow

In Rue Saint Paul, in front of marché Saint Paul, a shop of figurines.

Horses purchase

Initially, there was here a horse butcher. The frontage is now classified and its destruction is prohibited.

Nowadays, the merchand sells clothes.

Location : corner rue du Roi de Sicile - rue Vieille du Temple.

 Your Paris pages are the best! We will renew our carte de sejour very soon and we will continue on in Paris due to financial crisis in the USA. Hope to meet you one day soon. All the best.
